A Practice Built on Empathy & Evidence

I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with over 8 years of experience working across hospital settings, private practice, and academia. I work with individuals, couples, and students facing a wide range of psychological challenges — from everyday stress to complex trauma.

My approach is collaborative and tailored to each person. Drawing on CBT, trauma-informed care, behaviour therapy, and meaning-based frameworks, sessions are designed to be both structured and deeply human.

I consult at Ishaq Haroon Trust Hospital and The Safe Space, and also offer online video sessions.
